Through the corporate-funded American Legislative Exchange Council, global corporations and state politicians vote behind closed doors to try to rewrite state laws that govern your rights. These so-called "model bills" reach into almost every area of American life and often directly benefit huge corporations. ALEC is the heart and soul of the GOP.

Trump Is Such A Liar That Politifact Is Worried About Becoming ‘The Trump Channel’

Donald Trump is the worst America has to offer. He has zero class
and not a single redeeming quality. Every time he opens his mouth he
embarrasses himself, his party and his country. Extraterrestrials will
surely use him as the last straw in deciding not to make contact with
humans.

Yet this man, this absolute disgrace to humanity,
is somehow polling at the top of the Republican field. It’s really not
that difficult to figure out. Trump’s blowhard style and penchant for
outright lying to his followers will get him far with the modern
conservative base.

They want to hear all about his phony statistics, his massive wealth and his success as a reality TV star.
Of course they do. The modern Republican base are a bunch of Donald
Trump wannabes. They want enough money that they can crap on the poor
all day long. They want enough public exposure that they can say the
dumbest of things and still be taken seriously by other numbskulls.

Donald Trump is the perfect hero for the “patriots” of the new conservative movement.

But Trump’s popularity isn’t winning the hearts of the people at
Politifact. A trusted fact-checker, Politifact has been busy since the
start of Trump’s campaign debunking the mound of garbage spewed forth
from his mouth.
Trump’s statements about fellow Republican Jeb Bush, the Obamacare
website, Mexico sending us their rapists, all of those ridiculous things
have rated anywhere from mostly false to “pants on fire.” Here’s a
summary of what Politifact has dealt with from the Donald:

Notice the zero next to “true.” Nothing Trump has said that’s been researched by Politifact is true. Nothing.

“Donald Trump has been making a lot of comments that get
into the headlines and he’s been saying a lot of things that sound
wrong, and that’s a combination that attracts fact-checkers. I don’t
want to turn this whole sit into the Trump Channel.”

Trump’s campaign has apparently officially given up bothering to try
making their candidate sound truthful. Holan noted that in the beginning
of the run, there was some contact with Trump’s campaign when they
tried fact-checking his stupidity, but lately they haven’t responded at
all.

And still his numbers grow, his popularity increases, and his nose
gets longer. It certainly will be interesting to watch all of this blow up in his face when the real campaigning and debating happens.
